How do I contact the shelter about Kotlecik?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kotlecik on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Kotlecik if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Kotlecik already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.

What happens if Kotlecik isn't the right fit?

Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kotlecik and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Kotlecik

Male · Adult · 4 years

He’s currently staying in a foster home. Kotlecik is looking for a loving forever home! ❤️ He ended up with us straight from the streets— he was a free-roaming cat. He was brought to the shelter in a dire condition: badly bitten by other cats, with festering, extensive wounds. We managed to heal his body, but his soul needed time—he was so stressed that he kept catching one cold after another. He spent all his time at our hospital, with limited mobility, which caused our little Pulpecik to gain a bit of weight. The medications also made him irritable, so he tended to be wary of people. But this guy won over our vet’s heart! ❤️ She fought fiercely for him, knowing that the stress at the shelter was preventing him from fully recovering. She found him a foster home, where Kotlecik began to heal and thrive. Now he’s slowly losing those extra pounds—we even joke that he’s on a “weight-loss program”! Our little bear loves lounging around on the couch. Whenever someone sits down next to him and starts petting him on the head, under his chin, along his back, or on his tummy—he kicks into high gear with a loud purr and reaches seventh heaven. In the evenings, he transforms into a little scout: he runs around and plays with the other cats. At his foster home, he immediately hit it off great with the residents! If reading this made your heart beat a little faster—fill out the adoption application! We’ll definitely give you a call. 😻

Aktualnie przebywa w domu tymczasowym. Kotlecik szuka kochającego domu! ❤️Trafił do nas prosto z działek – był kotem wolnożyjącym. Do schroniska przywieziono go w dramatycznym stanie: dotkliwie pogryziony przez inne koty, z ropiejącymi, rozległymi ranami. Wyleczyliśmy jego ciało, ale dusza potrzebowała czasu – był tak zestresowany, że łapał jedno przeziębienie za drugim. Cały czas spędzał w naszym szpitalu, z ograniczonym ruchem, co sprawiło, że nasz Pulpecik trochę przytył. Leki dodatkowo go rozdrażniły, przez co bywał nieufny wobec ludzi. Ale chłopak skradł serce naszej wetki! ❤️ Walczyła o niego zawzięcie, wiedząc, że stres w schronisku blokuje pełne wyleczenie. Znalazła mu dom tymczasowy, gdzie Kotlecik doszedł do siebie. Teraz powoli traci zbędne kilogramy – śmiejemy się, że jest na „turnusie odchudzającym”! Nasz misiaczek uwielbia wylegiwać się na kanapie. Gdy ktoś usiądzie obok i zacznie go głaskać po głowie, pod bródką, plecach czy brzuszku – uruchamia głośną mruczałkę i trafia do siódmego nieba. Wieczorami zmienia się w harcerza: biega i bawi z innymi kotami. W domu tymczasowym od razu złapał super flow z rezydentami! Jeśli czytając to, serduszko zabiło Ci mocniej – wypełnij ankietę adopcyjną! Na pewno zadzwonimy. 😻
